Brltty uses your system's current locale to decide which text table to use. If you're in the US then your locale should be en_US.UTF-8, but it looks like your lovale is probably set to en_GB.UTF-8. To find out what your system's locale is, what does this command say?

   echo $LANG

To change it to your US locale, run this command as root and then reboot:

   localectl set-locale en_US.UTF-8
